probably something in the way you coppied the game (which by default mean's i can't help you...the only reason i could help you up till now is because you installed with your license...not his...the reason i can't help you is because we do not support pirating...which technically using his cd is pirating)....the best i can give you is to see if it works with the original disk

but i thought you were allowed to makeimages of the disk so that you don't need insert the disk every single time. when i did this with cc generals the same message came up saying please insert disk even when i put the disk in. by which time i was getting worried so i decided to reinstall it but it still isn't working, what is going on here !!!!!!!!!!!!

You can make backups as long as you have a valid liscence for the game its ok. Although to get it to work you may have to use methods that a pirate would use to get it to work which i dont think it would be appropriate for us to say given this sites strict ToS on the matter.
